Abstract
|
|
|
Three plasmids derived from the ¥â-agarase gene (pjaA) of Pseudomonas sp. W7 were expressed in Escherichia coli AD494(DE3) pLysS with lactose as an inducer. These products corresponded to the complete (PjaA) and the two C-terminal truncated (PjaA¥° and PjaA¥±) forms of ¥â-agarase. The PjaA¥° and the PjaA¥± were originated from exonuclease ¥² treatment from PjaA by deleting 127 and 182 amino acid residues-encoded nucleic acids at 3¢¥ region, respectively. The molecular weights of the purified proteins were 71 kDa, 58 kDa, and 50 kDa on SDS-PAGE, respectively. The K_(M) value of PjaAI was lower than that of the PjaA, and the catalytic efficiency (k_(§¯)/K_(M)) of PjaAI was increased to 5 times. The enzyme of PjaAI retained more than 90% activity at 50¡É. In contrast to the PjaAI, the remaining activity of the PjaA was only 20% at the same temperature.
